Order Your Spirit Wear Before School Begins!

Just a few days left to order spirit wear in time to pick it up before school starts! Use this link to order by July 30 and you can pick up your spirit wear at our ice cream socials! The order form requests child's grade and teacher, but you do not need to enter a teacher's name to order.

Kindergarten Coffee

Are you a Kindergarten parent? Are you nervous about this big transition? Have a few (or a hundred) questions? You're in luck! All Kindergarten families are invited to an informational meeting at the school on Friday, August 6 from 8-9 a.m. There will be a HUGE amount of information given at this meeting and you will have a chance to have all your questions answered. We hope you can join us!

Grade Level Supply Lists

Click here to see the supply lists for ALL grades. If possible, please bring supplies to your student's ice cream social. Keep in mind that if you pre-ordered supplies in the spring you do not need to send supplies with your student on the first day of school. All pre-ordered supplies will be delivered directly to the school and will be waiting for your student on the first day.

Ice Cream Socials - Meet Your Teacher! (Note the change in time!)

Come meet your teacher and have a sweet treat! In order to allow for social distancing as well as give each of our families a chance to come inside the building for a quick peek at their child's classroom, we have made some changes to our ice cream socials - please take note! 2nd, 3rd, and 4th grades will meet on Thursday, August 5th from 3-5 p.m. Kindergarten and 1st grade will meet on Monday, August 9th from 3-5 p.m. If possible, to help with flow, please arrive between 3:00 and 4:00 if your last name begins with A-M; arrive between 4:00 and 5:00 if your last name begins with N-Z. Parents and kids will have the opportunity to quickly see their classroom and meet their teacher. Please be prepared to keep the flow moving through the building so that everyone can have a turn while keeping distance. We can't wait to see you there!

Virtual Town Hall Meeting with Ms. Goetz

Mark your calendar for a virtual Town Hall meeting with Ms. Goetz on Wednesday, August 4 at 6 p.m. You will receive answers to some of your burning questions about arrival, dismissal, and how the day-to-day will go inside the school building. More info and a link to the meeting to come!

PNA Updates

PNA will operate as it did last year. PNA will be operating from 6:30am-7:30am and 3:15pm- 6:00pm. We are currently at our capacity, so from this point you will be placed on a waiting list. Thank you for your understanding. If you have any questions, please speak to Ms. Yawanda McCord in the Sylvan Park office.
